OPPO has partnered with Reliance Jio to test and validate superior 5G capabilities in the F29 series, setting a benchmark for connectivity in the INR 20,000–30,000 price range.
Launched on March 20, 2025, the OPPO F29 series has emerged as a strong performer in 5G network capability, following rigorous testing on Reliance Jio’s standalone (SA) 5G network. With Jio recognised by Ookla as the fastest mobile network for 5G in India, OPPO’s collaboration ensures the F29 series delivers one of the most reliable connectivity experiences in its price segment.
Built for 5G: Tested with Jio
OPPO’s F29 series incorporates its proprietary Hunter Antenna Architecture, which plays a central role in enhancing connectivity. This design includes a 200mm fully wrapped antenna layout, covering 84.5% of the phone’s borders, offering consistent signal reception regardless of hand positioning, even during gaming or streaming.
Field tests conducted in Bengaluru and Mumbai demonstrated that the F29 series outperforms other smartphones in the same price category for both upload and download speeds. The antenna’s low-frequency, vertically centered, and horizontally symmetrical layout reduces signal loss and ensures stable performance in real-world conditions.
Network Technologies That Make a Difference
4×4 MIMO Support: The F29 series extends support for B40, B3, and B39 bands, becoming the first in its price segment to do so. This leads to better signal strength and significantly improved download speeds.
AI LinkBoost 2.0: OPPO’s advanced algorithm detects signal drops in real time, such as in elevators, and dynamically boosts connectivity to maintain smooth performance.
Dedicated Gaming Antenna: Designed specifically for horizontal gameplay, it ensures strong WiFi reception even during dual-hand grip, reducing latency and interruptions.
TÜV Rheinland Certification: Independent validation confirms the F29’s network performance reliability.
